Hello @ksstage
In addition to what’s already been mentioned, you can check if the DNS of the domain name is pointed correctly, both the www and non-www records.

Hi there,
Are you using Nginx or Apache?
I would recommend a few things:
/var/logs/nginx/error.logor for Apache:/var/logs/apache2/error.logsystemctl status nginxorsystemctl status apache2nginx -torapachectl -tDepending on which one you are using, I would also suggest following the steps here:

Feel free to share some of the output of the commands here so I can advise you further!
Best,
